Back in December, MEN launched a multipart collaboration with the Tom of Finland Foundation. With various installments, the massive gay porn company aimed to create a series of films based on the past, present, and future of the legacy of Touko Laaksonen -- the man known to most as Tom of Finland. That started off with work that held a bit of vintage flair, moved through a sort of retro-inspired moment directed by Bruce LaBruce, then went to modern-day, set in a leather bar. This Friday, on the 100th anniversary of Laaksonen's birth, the project will look ahead.
In a new film co-directed by the iconic porn performer Francois Sagat alongside Alter Sin, MEN explore the future of Finland's legacy -- the film is Sagat's first time directing for the company. Starring Sagat himself, the project also features DeAngelo Jackson, Ty Mitchell, and Mickey Taylor. A new trailer reveals that it also includes some interesting animation by the artist Jason Ebeyer. The project is titled Tom of Finland: Future Erotica.

The project comes days after MEN announced a new social distancing effort.
"We at MEN want to reward folks for practicing social distancing and staying home with a free 1-year membership and MEN merch!" they wrote to Twitter. In order to be up for the prie, users must upload a video of them twerking to Instagram with the hashtag #twerkfromhome while also tagging their official account. It comes after other adult sites have also launched pandemic specific projects and campaigns.
